jamieortiz7061I'm planning to run a video contest and want to avoid huge uploads that could slow down the site. Is there a way to limit the file size or restrict the accepted formats to only certain types like MP4 or MOV? Also, does the plugin handle video uploads smoothly on standard hosting?

Accepted answer
Yes, the Image / Video Contest Generator allows you to set maximum file size limits and specify allowed file types for submissions. You can configure these settings per contest, ensuring that participants can only upload files that meet your criteria.
For video uploads, the plugin works well on standard hosting, but we recommend using a service like Amazon S3 or a CDN for larger files to ensure smooth performance and fast loading times.
